INFRARED PHOTOS

Pest Arrest Pest Management infrared technology uncovers hidden termite and pest activity that cannot be seen by the naked eye. Here are just a few examples:
 

In the infrared image above, a termite infestation is seen in the dark, tube-like track descending vertically toward the bright white dot. 

Note the large, cotton-boll-shaped pattern that begins in the center of this photo and extends rightward. This is a large nest of Formosan termites, visible only through infrared.

An ordinary view of a house wall, as seen by the naked eye. No termite damage or activity is evident here (see next picture).

In this infrared view of the same wall, the dark splotches and dark vertical lines indicate termite activity

behind the wall itself. The infestation was confirmed and, later, visually during renovation of the house

(see next picture).

After the wall pictured in the previous two pictures was torn out, the termite damage was plainly evident.
 

The white areas are actually mice tunnels surrounding a return air duct inside the walls of a child’s playroom (upstairs). These tracks would go undetected in an ordinary visual inspection.

The dark area in the center of this picture resembles a termite infestation, but no termites were indicated. Further investigation showed that the anomaly was due to poorly installed insulation.
